A.N. soz that it's not as good as the others but what ya gonna do?
Chapter .9. Meeting under the stars.
The next weeks went by slowly. Eldinwen's marks had fallen but Raene and Legolas' slowly improved. They were worried about Eldinwen. She had hardly eaten and kept going out for walks in the middle of the night. Things didn't look good.
The situation didn't get any better when they were all in potions the next day…
"Not that ingredient you stupid girl!" Snape snarled down on Eldinwen. She had added primrose to brindell nightshade, producing toxic fumes of black smoke. Snape flicked his wand and the mixture disappeared. "In future be more careful!"
Eldinwen's eyes filled with tears.
"If you know what I've been going through…" the rest of the sentence caught in her mouth as Snape whipped round and glared out her.
"Alright Miss Greenleaf, what have you been through, do tell."
Eldinwen just bowed her head, tears streaming down her cheeks.
"I think you need to come with me Miss Greenleaf."
Eldinwen followed Snape out of the classroom, all eyes on her in disbelief.
She sat in Snape's office, after she refused to tell him anything he gave up and told her that she could sit there until she had calmed down and he would over look the detention he had planned for her. So she sat there wondering, wondering why Seregwen was back and what her next move would be. It was obvious she was getting her power from Kementhalion's blood. But why was she here? Revenge? These Questions still puzzled Eldinwen as she headed towards the Griffindor common room.
The northern star shone brightly and Mars was unusually bright. The full moon glistened like a giant pearl on a bed of misty blue velvet. Hidden in the girl's toilets, utterly bored with the sound of moaning Myrtle's voice, were three students.
"When did they say they would be here?" asked Ron, as moaning Myrtle flew over their heads again.
"Soon." Was all that Hermione could say. They sat in silence again. Suddenly the door opened and three more students came in.
"Sorry we're late." Apologised Eldinwen. The three new comers sat down and they started the meeting.
"We have to rescue him." Protested Eldinwen, "I can't bear any more visions of him being tortured. I'll fear sleeping."
"Yes, but we don't know if your visions are correct." Pointed out Harry.
"Believe me, my sis is never wrong!" Legolas looked serious for a change, "Elves are never wrong."
"But Seregwen may be sending you false visions. It's happened to me."
"But I'm so sure!" Eldinwen stared out of the window. "I'm sure…"
"We'll have to get more evidence, then we can work out a plan!"
"Ok, we'll meet again when we get more evidence." Raene pattered Eldinwen on the shoulder and she returned to the real world. "Right?"
"Right." Sighed Eldinwen miserably.
"Does that mean we can go back to bed now?" asked Ron sleepily.
"Yes, yes!" said Hermione, getting to her feet. Harry yawned.
"See you later then." Said Ron. And so they all went off to bed.
Eldinwen couldn't sleep. Pictures flickered through her mind. Kementhalion. Seregwen. Her elders who had taught her to follow her heart. Eldinwen realised that she should do that. Follow her heart… She hurried over to the door of the common room and sneaked out. She ran down the deserted corridors with eerie grace and speed, making no noise. She was fixed on her target, the tower. She was going to know for sure if her predictions were correct. She nearly ran into Filch on the fifth floor corridor but her sharp reflexes got her into the shadows before he had noticed anything. After that, everything went smoothly and in less than a quarter of an hour Eldinwen found herself standing in front of the towers door. She gulped, breathed heavily in and opened the door with a bone chilling creak…
